Cuphead leapt out of bed and whooped for joy.

"It's Christmas day Mugsy!" he yelled

"Cuphead it's 4 in the morning," Mugman groaned ,"I'm waiting till 8 O'clock."

"Aww come on mugsy. I'll take your presents if you don't hurry up

Immediately, Mugman threw his duvet over his brother and bolted down the stairs. Cuphead spent a few seconds scrambling out of his brother's blanket trap and then ran down the stairs after his brother.

Mugman was sitting in the middle of the living room floor with his stocking in front of him.he seemed to have received a specialised whisk, a book on latin spells and a chess set. Cuphead charged past him and reached into his stocking and felt some dusty lumps.

He pulled one out and was horrified to see a lump of coal. He stood there for a few seconds absolutely horrified. Behind him, MUgman snorted and when Cuphead turned around, absolutely dumbstruck Mugman couldn't hold it in.

"BWahahahah!" he laughed ,"the look on your face, i have your actual presents here!"

Mugman pulled cuphead's real stocking out from behind his back and tossed it to his brother.

Cuphead's look was of relief and of annoyance but he wasn't too worried about it.

"I'll get you next time Mugsy,'' Cuphead said ,as he dug into his loot. It was generic stuff like sweets and a slingshot though he didn't get the bomb he asked for . oh well there is always next year.

"You boys up already?!" Great Uncle flask complained (yes he's still here)

"It's the cuphead's fault," Mugman explained ,"he said he'd steal my loot."

"Mugsy just needed a bit of motivation."

Flasked groaned and rubbed his eyes tiredly.

"I have an idea." flask said. "I have two five buck notes, and whoever holds it against the wall with their head for the longest wins both."

Flask set them both up leaning their heads against the wall with the money in between and then went back to bed.

At 8AM Kettle's alarm went off and he got out of bed. Flask simultaneously woke up and walked into the living room and sat down on the couch while kettle sat down in his armchair.

"Face it mugsy this cash is mine,"

Kettle turned and saw the cup brothers still leaning against the wall.

"Ummmm, merry christmas?"

"Merry christmas kettle!" they both yelled jovial.

"I'd hug you if that didn't mean losing to this scoundrel," Mugman said.

Eldar kettle turned and mouthed to his brother ,"what are they doing?".

"Tell you later." flask whispered back

"Games over boys!" kettle announced ,"you can step away from the wall."

"NEVER!"

Without hesitation whatsoever Eldar Kettle swept both of their legs in one smooth kick causing both to simultaneously fall flat on their faces.

"Let's call it a drawer," Kettle suggested, "because it's time for our Christmas walk."

"Yay!" the cups yelled ,"Christmas walk!"

The cups raced to the cloak room and put on some lusciously thick and fluffy coats that covered everything but their nose and eyes making them look sorta like kenny from south park. Eldar kettle and flask put on some more sensible looking coats over their pyjamas and followed the excited little cups out.
